Wishing You a Happy New Year!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’m taking a vacation next week and Chris Harper will be posting for me all next week on my blog. Chris is my college aged son who is home for the holidays from Frostburg State University.<\/p>\n

Be gentle with him as he is a new blogger, but I’ve helped him to choose the topics that he will be writing on this next week. I think that you will like them.<\/p>\n

If you can think of\u00a0a topic also\u00a0that you think he would find interesting, just click comments below and leave a note and I’ll pass the topics on to him.<\/p>\n

I hope that you’ve had a wonderful family holiday, shared gifts with family and friends, and eaten enough to blow your diet.<\/p>\n

As I will be back online after the New Year, I want to take this time to thank each one of you for reading my blog this year and pass on my wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
